Fortinet introduces Advanced Threat Detection Appliance

To enable enterprises with a tool to help combat Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), Fortinet has introduced a threat protection appliance, FortiSandbox-3000D. The new offering combines dual-level sandbox, dynamic threat intelligence, real-time dashboard and rich reporting in a single device that integrates with Fortinet’s FortiGate next-generation firewalls (NGFW) and FortiMail email gateway appliances.

The FortiSandbox-3000D can be deployed on-premise on its own without changing any network configurations. Or, as mentioned, it can also be integrated with and extend Fortinet’s FortiGate and FortiMail platforms for improved detection and mitigation.
 
Consistent with Fortinet’s product development approach, the FortiSandbox consolidates specialized threat detection and intelligence services across protocols and functions into a single, high-performance and highly affordable appliance.
 
Rajesh Maurya, Country Manager SAARC, Fortinet, said, “The introduction of the FortiSandbox appliance is in direct response to APTs that are using highly sophisticated evasion techniques to avoid security detection. Our customers now have the opportunity to easily and cost-effectively perform detailed analysis of specific threats traversing their networks with the added benefit of integrating with our FortiGate and FortiMail appliances to perform in line, real-time threat mitigation.”
 
The FortiSandbox-3000D is available now.
